Zotero

Zotero is a free and user-friendly reference manager designed to help you gather, organise, annotate, cite, and share your research and is available available for Mac, Windows, Linux, and iOS

Zotero is, at the most basic level, a reference manager. It is designed to store, manage, and cite bibliographic references, such as books and articles. In Zotero, each of these references constitutes an item. More broadly, Zotero is a powerful tool for collecting and organizing research information and sources.

Zotero Connector

The Zotero Connector lets you save research items, PDFs, and webpage snapshots with one click as you browse, supporting thousands of sites from journal databases to news outlets. It also works with institutional proxies to ensure access to full-text content. For advanced features like organizing references and inserting citations into Word, LibreOffice, or Google Docs, pair it with the Zotero desktop app.
